The novel recreates the arrival of the Portuguese in the kingdom of the Congo at the end of the 15th century.

Work originally published as «Lord of the Kongo»; this Spanish edition, translated by Alberto Coscarelli, appeared in 2000 in the Narrativas históricas collection from Edhasa.
For readers of historical fiction interested in European colonialism in Africa and in little-known episodes of Portuguese expansion.
